In a nutshell, a 30 year old apparently grabbed a 3 year old he didn't
know and tossed him into a crocodile enclosure where the crocs promptly decided to make a snack of him; the boy was only rescued at the last

current place of residence implies that he is yet another illegal from
the third world; if he were a white Briton, the police would have had absolutely no hesitation in reporting that.

I'm reading on Twitter that he has been deemed "unfit for interview"
and... released? He was released on bail unti September.
Nobody's mentioning race as such, but there's a rumor that he's severely autistic and was out with a caregiver when it happened. It's only a
rumor.
Releasing this individual on bail seems like questionable judgment, regardless of his race or his medical conditions.

discuss HOW the boy got into the enclosure.
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/KKh8sat5yy8 [short]
If this was the only information you had about the incident, you'd think
the boy just fell into the enclosure by accident! This report is from
the Times, long regarded as the finest newspaper in the country (and
maybe the world).
But this video *is* a short. Perhaps the other important information was
in the video that gives the full story and just got edited out for this version? I've just done a bit of a search but I can't find a longer
version of this story from the Sunday Times. Have the levels of
gaslighting actually gotten THAT bad??
A bizarre incident in the UK has resulted in a three year old being in critical but stable condition after being found in a crocodile
enclosure; a 30 year old man has been arrested as a result. That's
pretty much all that the police have said so far.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MhVZ6hDoq0 [3 minutes]
Since merely standing in a crocodile enclosure is not going to put you
in the critical condition, I can only assume the boy was attacked by the crocodiles. There is no word on how the boy came to be in the enclosure
but the fact that a man has been arrested implies that the man is
believed to have put him in the enclosure in some manner. The police
have said there is no evidence that the boy and man had any previous acquaintance with one another.

What the hell were the police thinking? If he just fed a random three
year old to crocodiles but can't be interviewed, that would seem to call
for him being "sectioned" (the British term for confined to a mental
health institution), not left free to commit more mayhem!

forests which is of concern to me since my home is on the south side
of the street - and on the north side is a forest which goes for 50+
miles. (On rainy day when I wasn't working I went into Google maps to
their photo section and found my home, dragged the marker north and
was not surprised to find all forest with a few rock outcroppings and
kept going to see how far north I would have to go to get to another
roadway and was VERY surprised to learn that that was roughly 50-55
miles N of here - specifically the highway between Squamish and
Whistler - which is a ski resort.)

Surely they at least gave the guy a psychiatric examination before
deciding whether to criminally try him or send him to the funny farm.

As usual, the stupid human does something moronic and the innocent
animal behaving naturally pays the price. :-\
The keepers have probably been throwing food over the fence for years,
so seeing a little kid being thrown over the fence means the animal
will automatically see it as more food.

I well remember the old Rolf Harris song 'Vancouver Town' which starts
with "I hit Vancouver in the blazing sun / on the 5th of February '61
/ from the 6th of February through till May it rained and poured all
night and day" and I remember one year where we had 41 straight days
with measurable (e.g. more than 1/100th of an inch) rain - the
newspapers were making jokes about Noah and his '40 days and 40
nights'
And I think I mentioned ages ago that when I was in grad school out

home since it was filmed about 2 hrs drive E of Vancouver. (They
masqueraded the sets as Washington state but no one that knows
southern BC vs northern Washington would make that mistake)
